About the Owner

I live in England with my family and we love Portugal, it is a fantastic place to go for holidays. We bought the apartment in 2001 and spent many wonderful holidays there. It was my special wish to make the apartment as comfortable and luxurious as possible. Judging from all the feedback from my guests I must have achieved it. Everything was chosen with great love and care, no expense spared and the comfort of my guests in mind. Most apartments have only one sofa to sit on and then just chairs for everyone else. Here everyone has a very nice seat, that is surely what you want for your holiday.

Every time I have to leave I wish I could stay there, one day I just might.

A fantastic family holiday location

Just returned today from a fantastic holiday in Balaia. The apartment is well equipped and Friede has done everything to ensure a comfy stay. The location of the apartment is great. Yes, as a previous reviewer has stated it is close to the entrance of the park and therefore the road but this in my view does absolutely nothing to detract from the beauty of the apartment. With two young children the outdoor area, directly adjacent to the apartment was ideal. We spent most evenings relaxing on the patio and making use of the bbq - so completely disagree with the views of the previous reviewer. There are plenty of local restaurants offering take away options so with a young family this was once again very convenient. The nearest pool is less than a minutes walk and there is plenty going on in the day. A walk up to the top of the park and the club house is highly recommended - very picturesque. All in all a fab holiday.

Owner's Response: Thank you for that great review. I really do try to make it as comfortable as possible for my guests in the lovely apartment.

The apartment was well equipped.

The location of the apartment was terrible, not only was it right beside a busy road there was a building site the other side of the road. It was not the relaxing holiday listening to drills while having lunch outside on the patio. Also I did not find the reception staff very helpful. The food in the restuarant was just about edible.

Owner's Response: Really sorry that you did not enjoy your holiday. Many apartments on this big complex are close to the road but all the holiday activities are taking place towards the centre and any draw backs are reflected in the price. You get a beautiful superior apartment for the cheapest rate. It is situated so conveniently near the big pool, reception and supermarket and has a safe playing area for children at the back. The wonderful tropical gardens, the Golf Course and the lovely Club House are just a short walk away, and there are 6 pools to choose from, the restaurant is actually really lovely and I never had any complaints.
The apartment is one of the most beautiful ones on the complex, big armchairs and sofa, wood burning stove for off season evenings, free WiFi, travel cot and everything lovingly designed for the comfort of my guests.
It speaks for itself that a great number of my guests are returning year after year and have left many positive reviews.

Winter in Balaia

Our month in this lovely apartment was delightful. NIcely decorated, comfy beds, and all the conveniences at hand. Sunday dinner at the golf clubhouse is not to be missed. Great location for day trips. Owner and all the resort staff were attentive and helpful.
